3 About us Ofgem is Great Britain s gas and electricity regulator. Our goal is to protect energy customers interests, now and in the future. We make sure competition encourages great customer service and bears down on companies prices and profits. We do this by scrutinising costs and checking that companies stick to the rules we set. If a company falls short, we act. Since 2010, we ve imposed over 100 million in fines. We also control the revenue that network companies earn from running gas and electricity grids. This way we make sure customers get value for money from a 6 billion a year programme to upgrade Britain s networks. And we are planning for the future too, with the rollout of smart metering over the next few years, and looking ahead to make sure there s enough capacity in the system to meet demand. About half our staff work in Ofgem E-Serve, a division that runs government environmental and social schemes. These include the Energy Companies Obligation, the Domestic and Non-Domestic Renewable Heat Incentives, the Renewables Obligation, the Feed-In Tariff scheme, and the Climate Change Levy exemption. The total value of these schemes is approximately 4 billion per year; our costs for administering them are just 0.6% of this. We are a diverse and vibrant organisation, with the majority of our staff working in our London and Glasgow offices. We aim to attract, support, retain and motivate our staff by making sure that they have the skills and knowledge to perform their roles effectively and provide them with development opportunities to build a career. We offer a variety of formal training courses, on-the-job training, coaching and other development activities. There is also a comprehensive management development programme and support for further education and professional qualifications. Ofgem is a great place to work, and we hope to be welcoming you soon.
